IIS and Outlook Web Access

[gfunk123]

We run our OWA on a seperate IIS box,not the exchange box. I have just moved all of our company mailboxes to a brand new exchange server (with a different name and IP address)and OWA has stopped connecting. I can get to the logon screen and the other logon box even pops up , but then it just hangs with 'connecting to (IIS servers IP)'. I have tried to find somewhere in IIS that specifies the old exchange server name so I can change it, but cant find anywhere.

Does anybody have any ideas

Wardo,

This should have the information you are looking for. Gfunk123 I know that it does prompt you for the name of the exchange server during the owa install but I am not sure where it stores the information. Reinstalling OWA would correct the problem, I wouldn't want to do that so if you find where it stores that information let me know.

Well I finally got the whole thing to work.

I put an Outlook link on my website which pointed back out to the net with

http://www.FQDN:8080/Exchange

and then opened 8080 on the router and directed that port to the Exchange box.
Seems to work fine but I need to look further and read your link because this can not be the correct way to accomplish this.

Have you looked at the security permissions for the IUSR_xxxx account?

I am not letting the IUSRXXX account into the OWA "part" of the site.
At least I hope I am not!!!
